After rape indictment, UFC’s Abdul Razak Alhassan seeks complete removal of GPS monitor

In September UFC welterweight Abdul Razak Alhassan, 33, was indicted on two counts of sexual assault stemming from an alleged incident that occurred in Fort Worth, TX in March. Alhassan was arrested in connections with those charges and released from jail in April on a $20,000 bond.

This week The Star Telegram reported that Alhassan’s lawyer Brandon Barnett has attempted to further modify the conditions of Alhassan’s bond. Originally it was stipulated that Alhassan wear a GPS monitor on his ankle at all times. However, in May Alhassan’s lawyer was able to grant Alhassan permission to remove the device when training and fighting outside of Tarrant County, TX.
